I just checked the GPS satellite positions via http://www.n2yo.com, PRN[24] (which shows the strongest signal), at the time of my screen shot, is supposed to be above Australia. I am in Ohio. There is no way my phone could've seen it... unless it has magic. Something is definitely wrong here.

Help??
[Vibrant Android Development] b1wyatt:
Got to tell you this ram is NOTgiving me problems at all. I also bought the new 1800ma battery from prev posts and I'm at 65% after 49 hours. I love it.
[Vibrant Android Development] WallaceLau:
Well I can tell you this ROM *is* giving me problems... lol

I just did a complete flash back to stock, so at least I confirmed my GPS hasn't been fried... in stock rom I can get a lock, then I flashed to MIUI and I was able to get a lock too. Next I flashed to v13rc1 + boot3, and GPS=nuts.
[Vibrant Android Development] ZeroG1:
Same problem here. GPS works great even on gingerbread but nothing on any of the ice roms. I get the little icon the first time but it doesn't flash.
[Vibrant Android Development] slam4ik:
I found keyboard FC if choose chinese keyboard. And i couldn't get rid of this FC until reinstall the rom with wipe/format system.
[Vibrant Android Development] jwleonhart:
I'm getting GPS locks on ICS V13 within a minute... Faster than any of the procedures I had made or followed for any Gingerbread rom.

Also, I love how when the keyboard comes out, uptop on the drop down menu it lets you select the keyboard... Very very cool.
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
New Patch available in the OP.

It cleans up system partition and smoothens your experience, consider it as an update for v13 RC1.

It should also improve GPS. (untested)

Do review.
[Vibrant Android Development] fscussel:
is the "percentage" option for the status bar battery really not working? cause it changes nothing here.
[Vibrant Android Development] JettyLife:
Which cache so we wipe after flashing? Dalvik or partition
[Vibrant Android Development] TFordham:
Neo, is this update using Nelsons clean kernal from yesterday? The reason I ask is that when I flashed it, it broke my root and messed up my phone. I'm positive it was the kernal because it happened twice.
[Vibrant Android Development] ZeroG1:
Updating superuser, even if it doesn't need it, fixed this issue for me
[Vibrant Android Development] JediDru:
Genius!

Go to into Superuser--->Preferences---->Su binary (Tap to check for updates)----->Update anyway

Superuser has been restored. You will have to re-allow all Superuser apps though!!!!

Thanks again man.
[Vibrant Android Development] daffyno:
just updated, but gps doesnt work more after gone in deep sleep :(
[Vibrant Android Development] TFordham:
Fantastic. A huge thanks to you. Something that needs to be addressed with this update though.
[Vibrant Android Development] creeve4:
EVERY reboot when battery is near 100%, the battery stats are deleted???

Is it really necessary to "calibrate the battery" this often??
[Vibrant Android Development] mannequin:
I'm slightly confused by this, you can't change the image size on this rom?
[Vibrant Android Development] TFordham:
I've had that also. Just flashed the updated update, and haven't seen it. Not sure if that's the solution, but seems to be helping.
[Vibrant Android Development] royalkalana:
hi,

i have V10.6 and my notification bar got disappeared few times. couldnt fix that so the only thing i could do is reinstall the rom. anyone knows a solution for this ?

thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] CM Wave:
Using v13 with the cleanup patch... the Wifi death issue is back.
[Vibrant Android Development] christpuncher:
Had the same issue but only with wifi on. Just flashed the cleanup but the issue is still there. Kind of bummer since I get terrible reception in my house.
[Vibrant Android Development] fscussel:
clearing trebuchet data did the trick. thank you wkim!

but I'm removing ICS. Not a single advantage to my use, lower battery life, less configurable app drawer, more or less the same speed as bionix V2 NG, so I'm going back to that one. But the ROM is very well made and I congratulate Neo for the great work.
[Vibrant Android Development] Kfler:
ive been having really abnormal battery drain after fresh install v13 with boot 3 kernel. Any thoughts as to why? Is it the calibration at work?
[Vibrant Android Development] vgz01:
I've experienced the same. Compared directly to my v12, v13 has been noticeably worse with regard to battery life. I've kept the default kernel on both v12 and v13, so that variable hasn't been introduced.

EDIT: Not meant as a complaint, just an observation matching up with another person :)
[Vibrant Android Development] papi5120:
Did u install the battery percentage mod? If you flash the wrong one its known to do that
[Vibrant Android Development] papi5120:
My battery life has been getting better in both v12 and v13
[Vibrant Android Development] CM Wave:
Looks like I don't have root? :/
[Vibrant Android Development] Soney09:
Whats the clean up patch for? Does it wipe the phone? And is it good to use?
[Vibrant Android Development] scaldaferri:
Just update the superuser (even it already updated, update anyway). Shoud solve your issue.

Regards

Andre
[Vibrant Android Development] Zeej:
I had the issue with v12 battery life. V13rc1 has better battery life than v12. v11 definitely had the best battery life so far.

Just offering information, still better battery life than froyo.
[Vibrant Android Development] ubcjack:
Hi,

For the cleanup.zip. Can we apply it on RC1? or we have to apply boot2, boot3 then cleanup?

Also what kind of cache should we wipe after flash cleanup.zip?

Thanks.

---------- Post added at 05:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:53 PM ----------

Sorry I wasn't being clear.. should we wipe Dalvik Cache, wipe data/factory reset, or wipe cache partition? or wipe all three?
[Vibrant Android Development] biakuya_pr:
hellpppp!!!

I just flashed v13 lost root acces and my pc wouldnt recognize my phone. Phone goes to download mode but odin dont recognize it. Installed kies but phone is presented as usb driver. Thing is i wipe everything hoping i would be able to odin back to stock no i think i just bricked my phone. If someone can help i will apreciate it...
[Vibrant Android Development] Danstek:
Is proximity and light sensors working for anyone else? Not sure why but mine doesn't work on any ICS roms. I've tried Passion's, Onecosmic's, and CM9 and they never worked on any of those roms. I went back to stock JFD they work fine on that. They also work on Froyo and Gingerbread roms.
[Vibrant Android Development] Shiv4m:
Can anyone give me an update on the battery life of the latest ROM? And can Antone who has been using this ROM tell me if it's worth it?
[Vibrant Android Development] ubcjack:
It doesn't work on mine either. Auto brightness doesn't do anything for me. I just set manual light on widget buttons.
[Vibrant Android Development] royalkalana:
ya i figured out that soon after i installed the percentage mod,it happens.it worked on V10 though..

so i think i have to find the correct one for the V13.

thanks mate :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Danstek:
Yeah, I don't mind the light sensor but I would like to have the proximity sensor though. I always end up pressing buttons when my phone is against my cheek during a call.
[Vibrant Android Development] TFordham:
Neo, can you add to the OP that Superuser need to be updated, regardless if you have recently, if you are flashing the v13 clean update? I think this will stop a lot of headaches until it's fixed.
[Vibrant Android Development] lonepie:
I was coming from MIUI, so I'm pretty sure I had GB bootloaders. I looked up the "rainbows" issue; my issue looked nothing like that (unless there are varying degrees of the issue). My phone would boot up fine, it just had screen distortions everywhere. Text was incredibly difficult to read and images looked like they were moving. I'd say the distortions looked something like interlacing.
[Vibrant Android Development] ubcjack:
Anyone has the answer?
[Vibrant Android Development] TFordham:
You can do just the clean up zip. Wipe dalvik. Make sure you update your superuser after you do though.
[Vibrant Android Development] CM Wave:
Where can I get the updated superuser app? Doesn't look like there's an updated version on the Market. And is there any fix for the Wifi death issue?

edit: Nevermind, found my answer here. The OP really needs to be updated with this information. Still looking for a fix for Wifi death.
[Vibrant Android Development] TFordham:
Just go into superuser preferences and click on update. Not sure what the WiFi of death is though.
[Vibrant Android Development] traicer:
hows everyone battery life doing? anyone getting anything close to gingerbread ?

I'm having the same issue. I have always thought that this issue had something to do with memory issues but i could be wrong.
[Vibrant Android Development] nobd4721:
My GPS has work on Cyanogenmod, and on Aplha 8 from the guys over at google code. And in some SGS II roms. I would try what you suggested but im still a little bit "green" around here lol Or if you help, maybe?:D

[Vibrant Android Development] jay661972:
Download font installer then go to settings and click the installed fonts. There you will see three fonts that.are.checked already dont unchecked it and checked the Roboto regular only and install what font you like.

Tried recalibrating but battery life's still bad. Guess it's a hardware problem, my phone was lying unused with the battery out for a few months (broken screen), maybe the battery got damaged somehow..

My battery life is amazing with this version. At first I thought it sucked [5.5 hours and 39% left], but then I cleared battery stats via CWM.

Since then, I am a little over 11 hours with moderate use [half using lots of wifi downloading things and the other half sitting idle] and I still have 78% left.

I love it.
[Vibrant Android Development] molemusprime:
My battery has been great almoat at 24 hours on one charge and thats with moderate use, pleanty of streaming music and some quick web browsing.
[Vibrant Android Development] CM Wave:
After the phone's been alseep for maybe 30 minutes or more, Wifi doesn't work when it wakes back up. I'll have to disable Wifi and re-enable it to get it working again.
[Vibrant Android Development] gravyong43:
I came from v11. Anyone know how to revert back to the old notification lights? When the phone is locked and you receive a text message, the 4 buttons on the bottom would stay illuminated. Now they pulse over and over, I prefer the old way.
[Vibrant Android Development] bobshute:
OMG.....there's 9700 posts telling you how good this is and about the battery.

PLEASE take the time and look at the past 10 pages of posts or so.

Yes it is "worth it" or there wouldn't be 9700+ posts, battery is user dependent but excellent for me.
[Vibrant Android Development] TFordham:
Interesting. I've never had that problem. Thankfully.
[Vibrant Android Development] TFordham:
I hate this ROM, and the battery is awesome for me! Actually, one is true and the other a lie. You can guess which is which.
[Vibrant Android Development] muleyman:
you might try installing nstools and turning blink off. i don't know if it can be done somewhere else or not.
[Vibrant Android Development] woofiegrrl:
Still wondering about this myself. It never sticks...I really don't want that feature, but every time I turn it off, it turns itself back on. Any thoughts, anyone? (I'm still on v12 but this happened with v10.5 as well.)
[Vibrant Android Development] phone_noobie:
Wierd clock widget problems are happening on my v11. Ive had this rom for almost a week now. I noticed that the clock widget would move whenever it would feel like. For ex, system clock says 1pm, widget is stuck on something like 12:15. I would manually have to push it to sync with the system clock and then it would stop working again. I thought ok, maybe that app is bad so i went with the stock typoclock widget that came with this rom and same problem. Any ideas why this is happening? Im also starting to notice some lag happening
[Vibrant Android Development] Shiv4m:
Can someone tell me whats the benefit of running "ICS Passion v13 Cleanup Patch"
[Vibrant Android Development] mveksler:
I have found none. It was suppose to fix some some issues for people who did not format system before flashing and possibly fix GPS issue but no luck for me on GPS. Only v11b5 3.0.8 makes GPS working.
[Vibrant Android Development] flapane:
Can I restore my Titanium backup (made on CM7) onto ICS Passion? Of course system apps will be excluded from the restore.
[Vibrant Android Development] plaseo:
I restored all my apps from froyo using titanium with no issues.
[Vibrant Android Development] JediDru:
FYI if you flash yet another GPS fix v2 GPS works again. I get 11 in view 8 in use with a 19 foot accuracy. I should clarify, after flashing the v13 Nelson add on. You should flash yagf2 to get GPS working again.
[Vibrant Android Development] ren2008:
My GPS works flawlessly after two testing, it never worked for me before even on froyo roms. Im using Motonav with CANADA maps i use to navigate with on my Nexus One, woot! Finally driving with Text-To-Speech directions working!

I was on Bionix 1.3 -> Trigger 3.2 final -> Passion V11, (V11.5 GPS was working 50% after deep sleep) -> V12 -> V13 no full wipe, just cache and dalvik, permission.

Battery life seems good so far, will comment after a 2 weeks of use.
[Vibrant Android Development] is350v6:
The clean up patch makes my ics running smoother. I noticed a big difference in performance after the patch.
[Vibrant Android Development] ubcjack:
Can you clarify if your GPS still works after deep sleep? GPS has always worked for me from a fresh boot and will fail once device tries to go deep sleep, while locking up device to be awake.
[Vibrant Android Development] mmaser26:
Its a great idea, but is there any way to get rid of that icon while typing? I like a clean notification bar and its kind of useless for uni-lingual people.

Not to bash it or anything, just wondering if there is a toggle somewhere I haven't found to disable it. Anybody (or NeoBuddy) know how?

P.S. this is my first time posting on this forum and while I'm at it I must say this is the sickest f*cking rom I have ever used... Seriously I am in disbelief when I wake up every morning to check my phone and see that I am running 4.0 on my Vibrant... Especially a now STABLE build, before some wayyy more popular phones are even with custom roms/ect.Thank you sooooo much NeoBuddy89 you rock.
[Vibrant Android Development] mveksler:
This is strange, I will have to compare the files in this zip to the ones on v11b5 3.0.8 if they match that might explain why it makes it work on v13 kernel. I will do it after work.

Have you checked deep sleep too?
[Vibrant Android Development] TFordham:
I have an odd one for anyone.....since flashing the clean kernal, some of my apps have a droid for the icon instead of the usual icon. The app works fine, just the icon has changed. Probably about 10 out of my 60'ish apps.
[Vibrant Android Development] ubcjack:
Can you confirm GPS still works after deep sleep and doesn't lock device awake?
[Vibrant Android Development] riprod720:
?

I had to reinstall busy box...that cleared things up for me. Titanium wasn't working, that's what resolved it.
[Vibrant Android Development] papi5120:
i just rebooted and it worked for me
[Vibrant Android Development] ren2008:
Yes after deep sleep it works! I tried it 4 times so far within the last 5 hours (deep sleep in/out) disabled/re-enabled GPS in status bar numerous times and im able to get a lock under a minute or so in AngryGPS every single time.

I think i can finally rely on my Vibrant GPS for once!
[Vibrant Android Development] ubcjack:
This is the link for yagf2 right?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1370910

And the procedure is RC1 - Cleanup - yagf2.

Thanks. :D
[Vibrant Android Development] Shiv4m:
Which CPU governor is the best to use? I'm used to using conservative.
[Vibrant Android Development] mveksler:
Just remember that RC1 did not have v13 kernel it was posted later on FB. So I would assume the true test would be RC1->reboot->v13 kernel->reboot->clean up->reboot->yagf2
[Vibrant Android Development] snapple232:
Are you supposed to let the rom settle after flashing the cleanup patch?
[Vibrant Android Development] ubcjack:
On FB group it says "Clean-up patch

This will rearrange some files in addition to deleting some unneeded files. The result will be more space in your system partition. ICS occupies a lot of space.

http://www.mediafire.com/?1zuhd9dbzapr885

This does include my latest kernel"

It sounds latest kernel is included in cleanup.zip?

Do you know where can we check the kernel version. Is it the one in about phone -> Kernel Passion v13

Thanks.
[Vibrant Android Development] Upstreammiami:
does anyone have a link for face unlock ???? thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] mveksler:
Yes the cleanup already contained latest 3.1.10 kernel. You can check in about settings.

I have tried flashing cleanup and yet another GPS fix and still no good after deep sleep. Flashing back to v11b5 3.0.8 kernel restores GPS functionality after deep sleep.
[Vibrant Android Development] papi5120:
its in the OP
[Vibrant Android Development] twosixths:
I had the same problem and am also a Google voice user. Here's what I did...

Go to Google Voice on the internet using a PC, go to settings and phones. Make sure to change the setting that ties GV to voicemail (it will make you enter a code).

Uninstall the GV app from your phone. Call your actual sim number from another phone, when the VM picks up, leave yourself a message.

Then, from someone else's phone, call your sim number again and press ‘*‘. Enter your pin, and delete the last message you sent yourself.

This worked for me... I had tried it a million times before, but the key for me was disabling Google voicemail in the GV settings online.

GPS still going nuts

Got home earlier from a full day of heavy use. I noticed nobody replied to my previous post, so I assume this is an isolated incident with only my phone. :(

During the day I had a couple random reboot (no OC or UV, completely stock setting) but generally everything works for me except GPS. As seen on the new screen shot, it is still going nuts... I wish I truly have a GPS chip that can "see" 23 satellites at the same time!!

I also just did a complete wipe again and tested GPS on each stage, to confirm what breaks my GPS. Here is the result (I checked GPS lock via AngryGPS, did not test deep-sleep):

1. Odin to stock -> GPS Works as expected

2. CWM to MIUI -> Same

3. CWM to v13.RC1 -> No dice, GPS can see sats on the other side of planet and could never get a lock

4. Apply Boot3 -> Same as step 3

5. Apply Cleanup -> Same as step 3

So it seems for whatever reason v13 completely broke my GPS beyond what I can imagine. On v12 (last week) I can get a lock normally even though GPS won't wake up after deep sleep. Not sure what is different from my phone but after two full wipe it is pretty evidential what I see is not a fluke. Nonetheless, I guess if others are still reporting the GPS will not wake from deep sleep, I really isn't missing much.

I am going to flash back to another ROM for the time being, since GPS is important for me. But I will keep monitoring the thread and will try again when v14 is out!

Thanks guys for all the hard work!

[Vibrant Android Development] ali4ek:
After updating to V13, with and without cleanup, Busybox shows the device as non-rooted, and when I try to update the binaries for the Superuser, it gets stuck on "Gaining root access".

Restored V12 backup, Busybox shows full root.

Will wait for now, V13 on my Vibrant was laggy to the point of being unusable, I didn't do a full wipe though, just cache+Dalvik, but I did the same for going 10->11 and 11->12, worked 100% fine.
[Vibrant Android Development] Panamon:
Try updating superuser even though it says it doesn't need it. That got my root back.

Sent from an ICS 4.0.3. powered Vibrant. Thank you awesome Devs & XDA.

Abandoning the Vibrant before its time lost you an avid fan and created a vocal critic.
[Vibrant Android Development] papi5120:
id suggest a full wipe. Thats what i did and ive had no problems at all or lost root
[Vibrant Android Development] Stevethegreat:
Any chance that you're going add "power button capture" mod like the ones existed on stock Samsung Roms (that is to say to make the camera to capture photos through the press of the power button).

I know it's a minor feature but quite handy for those of us keen to use the phone's camera (which is not that bad in outdoorsy environments). It makes a lot more sense to push an external button (to capture a photo) than to use the touch screen controls...
